The dream is real!
I think that I'm going to let my big girl do the dinner next year, she's been helping me the past few and knows the recipes by heart. She's already a pretty decent baker, and she's asked me if I might plant some wheat so that she can make baked goods for us to sell. I'm down. Anything to keep her busy with something that isn't penis, she'll be 13 in spring.
My handing off the Thanksgiving duties was more based on some health issues I have had the past few years. My oldest is way beyond 13 but I get it...granddaughter is 15 and daughter is learning why I was pulling my hair out during her teens. Hehe. Yes, what goes around comes around.
Daughter is a good cook when it comes to fancy foods but last year her mashed potatoes were...ummm...a bit lacking. And granddaughter told her mother to not even attempt mac n cheese, so that's my job for as long as I can manage it.
Daughter pretty much has my turkey gravy down pat and that's the most important food stuff as far as I am concerned when it comes to Thanksgiving dinner.
I'm your huckleberry.
